That's funny.

I don't know about the black R9 finish, but the black finishes on my CZ-75B Military and BHP MkIII get some dull discoloration if I spray them with gunscrubber. A little oil or grease restores the color and shine.

That is something huh?

Small world on the web. What state are you in? I'm in NY, not too far from the factory actually.

Best of luck with the pup. I hope you carry it in good health and may you never have to fire it in anger.

Just got back from the range....all went well! The pup's got a lil kick. Just a quick question for the resident experts....My first pup was like a 58xx serial # and the one I just bought was a 18xx. Did Rohrbaugh change any of the internal parts over the last say 5 yrs.  Or so? Is there anything drastically different on the Stealth other than the grips which are a bit different......thx!

Glad all went well.
  As far as changes in the last 5 years I would think there were some but Corey would probably be able to give you a positive yes or no.

Glad to hear it went well.

Just to add to the data pile, what do you prefer to feed your pup?

As far as changes made within that serial range,no frame changes that I know of.

There possibly may be the springs that are different,both recoil and mag springs..

Glad to hear that you found a a Pup of a different color.. 8)

Thx! something a bit different...seems to kick a lil more than my last one which is why I inquired about any possible changes/modifications that might contribute to that.

Doesn't seem likely it would kick more, you may want to change the recoil spring and see if that makes a difference.

One thing that was visually different on the upgrade when I sent back my cracked slide was a beefed up extractor. FWIW, I am much happier with the changes ,whatever they were, from a performance point of view. It has been flawless but many here have experienced the same good consistency since 2004 without any upgrades. It seems that there were some issues in the 500-800 S/N range that have been worked out since that time. This was also about the same time frame as the move to Deer Park, which may or not be related.
